Calorie requirement is based on weight and activity level. Age
only affects the BMR. Without knowing your weight and how
active you are it's impossible to determine caloric
requirement.

You can't get a good number from UseNet. Even if you went to a
dietician to get worked up, calorie balance is not that
reliable in designing a weight loss diet (calorie counting is
not too useful).
